How to install an Ops Manager or GM into your consultancy and take the day-to-day running of your business off your back
Built for Engineering & Built Environment Consultancy Owners
Stop being the operational bottleneck in your own business
Install the right leadership layer so you can focus on strategy, big picture and long-term growth
Engineering & Built Environment consultancy owners —
There comes a point where running operations yourself stops being productive…
…and starts limiting your growth.
You’re across every project.
You’re solving internal issues.
You’re managing workflow.
You’re the escalation point for everything.
That might work at $1M, maybe $2M.
But it won’t work at $3M, $5M or $10M.
If you want to grow to the next level, you can’t continue running the day-to-day yourself.
You need to install a leadership layer.
That leadership layer is usually either:
An Ops Manager
Or a General Manager (GM)
But most consultancy owners:
Hire too late
Hire the wrong role
Or install them poorly and end up frustrated
This online workshop will show you how to get it right.
In this 90-minute session, I’ll walk you through how high-performing consultancies are structuring BD teams and systems to:
-
Decide whether you need an Ops Manager or a GM, based on the stage and size of your consultancy
-
Understand the clear difference between an Ops Manager and a GM (roles, authority and accountability)
-
Define the right role description so you don’t create confusion or overlap
-
Identify what to look for in an ideal candidate (including why the best hires often come from outside your industry)
-
Install the role properly so it genuinely removes you from the day-to-day instead of creating more work
-
Structure the ascension path from Ops Manager to GM as your business grows
This isn’t about “just hiring someone.”
It’s about removing yourself as the operational bottleneck.
It’s about freeing up your time to focus on:
Strategy
Business development
Leadership
Positioning
Long-term growth
An Ops Manager removes operational strain.
A GM removes operational dependency.
If you want to build a consultancy that can grow without you being relied on for everything — this workshop is for you.
